In older homes, where there are very high ceilings and DEA-ri is much taller than a man, not everyone will be able to reach the top of the latch to open the door doctorcathy. Someone help out a chair or ladder. I have solved the problem simply — replaced the stem bolt on a makeshift metal rod with a diameter of 8 mm and a length of almost 1 m setting to support two additional brackets. Now the door can be opened directly from the floor.
